At Mauvezin-d'Armagnac in the Landes, Claire de Montesquiou, back from a career in London, and her husband Jean-Louis bought this neglected family estate in 1990 and brought it back to life. Only a few hectares, of Folle Blanche, Ugni Blanc and Baco, go to armagnac, and in the old Gascon way the estate has no still of its own: a travelling still calls each winter. Montesquiou family's.
